This year's European Champions League competition was played in almost extraordinary conditions, without spectators, and in the form of a tournament and not a cup competition.
The fact that German and French clubs had more time to rest and prepare also played a big role.
If there had been no change in the competition system due to coronavirus and if the competition had ended in a normal way, it is unlikely that Atletico or Mamchester CIty would have lost to their opponents in two games.
This year it is a tournament in knockout phase, no 2 leg matches as it used to be previous years. Some big leagues with their resume and fixtures put clubs and players in their nations in rushes and no doubt players don't have enough time to rest and recover energy.
La Liga, Serie A, and Premier League. Bundesliga came back sooner than three leagues and Ligue 1 ended too soon.
Now, about the final match, it is the first for Alphonso Davies, a new star in the swing back position. With the support from teammates in Bayern, I think the youth player will get his first trophy in Champions League.
